I'm Supporting EAA ... and Their Choice of Mr. Pelton
EAA is sport aviation, and it started with Paul's "Can Do" attitude. It's an organization that is about aviation education and getting to fly more economically and with more freedoms. If people look at the history of EAA, Paul used his military resources well to meet with people across the nation ... an F-86 is not a homebuilt. Tom was then our leader for many, many years, too. The two men are very different people but both did a great job for the progress of EAA, and both were the right people at the right time.
If WE now spend all of our time wishing for the good old days, we will surely be turned the wrong direction to see where the next generation can take us!
